Downtown Sanitation Service
“Lets Talk Trash” Downtown Sanitation Service
2
Understanding Current Conditions
Why Are We Here? Understanding Current Conditions Frequency of trash pickup is inconsistent Not all downtown business owners currently have trash service Quantity of cans in alleyways is obtrusive Physical condition of alleyways prevents regular maintenance Alleyway ownership creates difficulty in building consensus and providing services Disposal of household garbage, furniture and construction materials in alleyways Graffiti present in certain alleyways Disruptive parking in alleyways and at certain alleyway access points Decorative cans and recycling receptacles designed for public use oftentimes overfill

Central Business District

Potential Solution? Require business owners in a defined downtown district to participate in a mandatory trash service provided by the City of Newnan Develop unique fee schedule dependent on solid waste volume and frequency of service Operation managed utilizing current Sanitation Fund Enhance and aggressively enforce code enforcement to remediate alleyway trash accumulation Keep vehicles and other obstructions from blocking alleyway access points Routinely clean and maintain alleyways, sidewalks and trash receptacles
5
How? Operational and Capital Funding Expense Estimates assumes that the City of Newnan would manage the operation and service the defined downtown district with six days per week service for garbage collection as well as routine maintenance of alleyways and adjacent public spaces. Operational Income and Fee Schedule was developed utilizing the following components: Number of trash cans Frequency of service Rate for service per can Base Fee (environmental service, billing/admin, etc.)
6
Considerations? 243 properties located in the Central Business District 81 access points from downtown businesses into alleyways Currently, 5 solid waste providers service downtown customers Currently, monthly service fees range from $25/month to $500+/month Currently, the average frequency for pickup is once a week; restaurants typically receive more frequent service
